respiratory Flashcards
It is the entry point of air into the respiratory system
Nose
What are the composition of respiratory system
Conducting portion and respiratory portion
It is the exchange of gases of oxygen and carbon dioxide
Respiration
It maintains pH level of the body
Carbon dioxide
It will dissociate into hydrogen ion and bicarbonate ion
Carbonic acid
They contribute to the cellular an extra cellular level
Hydrogen and bicarbonate ions
If there is an excessive amount of carbon dioxide it will produce
Acidity that can be toxic to cell
Where the food and air crosses
Pharynx
These are vocal cords and passageway of air
Larynx
It is also called the wind pipe that conducts or transfer air from larynx to bronchi
trachea
It is a branching that work of tubes that distributes air to lungs
Bronchi
How many tracheal cartilages in the trachea
16 to 20
It is a hair like structure that transports mucus
cilia
It is lined by a pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
Epithelium
If the bronchitis is curable
Acute
What if the bronchitis is not curable and need vaccination
Chronic bronchitis
It moves the mucus
Ciliated cells
These are cells that are scattered in the epithelium that produces mucus
Goblet cells
These are non-ciliated columnar cell with microvilli on the free surface
Brush cells
Brush cells secrete fluid which keeps the mucosa moist
serous fluid
cells that is lying near the basal lamina
Basal cells
Cells that give rise to ciliated cells to replace those lost
Basal cells
neuroendocrine cells also called as
K cell
This cell produces peptide in the intestines
K cell
K cells produces what hormone
Peptide hormone
Regulates the production of gastrin
Peptide hormone
This secretes gastric acid
gastrin
Gastric acid is composed of
Hydrochloric acid
It produces acid for protein digestion, absorption and activation of enzyme
Hydrochloric acid
What is the pH level of stomach
1-2 PH level acidic
What are the three layers of trachea
Mucosa, submucosa and adventitia
mucosa consist of
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium and lamina propia connective tissue
Submucosa consist of
A lymphoid tissue and CT, serous mucus gland
adventitia consist of
C shaped cartilage and smooth muscle connective tissue
It is a covering of mucous in which dust particles get caught
mucous glands
